How to connect ChartHop to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Microsoft Copilot

Step by step, for each AI app

ChartHop MCP connector for Claude

  1. 1

    Open Customize, then Connectors.

What teams do with ChartHop through Elaichi

Ask in plain English. Each person’s AI can do only what they’re allowed to, and every action it takes in ChartHop is logged.

  • People Ops

    Catch a person's record up after a change

    After a promotion or a team move, update the person's title, manager and job in ChartHop from a chat instead of clicking through the profile. The change is recorded against whoever asked for it.

  • Finance

    Check open jobs against the headcount plan

    List every job in ChartHop, see which are filled and which are still open, and total them by group before the planning review.

  • Recruiting

    Open a job the moment it is approved

    Create the job in ChartHop with the right job code and group as soon as the requisition clears, so the org chart shows the opening the same day.

  • Managers

    Answer who sits where without the chart

    Ask which people are in a group, who leads it and which jobs are unfilled, and get the answer from live ChartHop records.

  • Operations

    Keep groups current as teams reorganize

    Add people to a new group, remove them from the old one, and rename or retire groups in ChartHop that no longer match how the company works.

  • IT

    Reconcile people and jobs before provisioning

    Pull the list of ChartHop people and their jobs to check against your directory before onboarding and offboarding runs, then fix mismatches in ChartHop directly.

Try asking

  • “Which jobs in the Engineering group are still open?”
  • “Move Priya Shah to the Customer Success group and update her manager.”
  • “Create a job code for Staff Data Engineer.”

Elaichi vs Zapier MCP vs Composio for ChartHop

All three can connect ChartHop to an AI assistant, and all three have admin controls. They differ in where access lives and how you pay.

Elaichi compared with Zapier MCP and Composio for ChartHop, by what to check
What to check Elaichi Zapier MCP Composio
Where the AI connects One address for the whole organization. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp A server per member, created at sign-in. An MCP endpoint per team, or an SDK.
Control over ChartHop tools Allow or restrict single ChartHop tools, per role or user. App and action restrictions on the account. Role permissions, down to the action.
Record of calls One audit entry per ChartHop call. A History tab of tool calls. A log of every tool call.
Single sign-on SAML or OIDC, plus SCIM, on Gold. SAML on Enterprise. SAML and OIDC on Enterprise.
Price Free for one person; $15 per user per month on Gold. 2 tasks per successful call. Billed per tool call.

Longer take: Zapier MCP alternative and when you don't need an MCP gateway.

ChartHop tools for your AI agents

101 tools are ready to call through Elaichi's MCP endpoint the moment you connect ChartHop, governed by the same roles, restrictions, and audit log as everything else in Elaichi.

Questions, answered

How do I connect ChartHop to Claude?

Connect ChartHop in Elaichi first: ChartHop connects with an API key, so you paste the key from your ChartHop settings and the connection is live. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate, and the whole setup takes a few minutes.

Does ChartHop work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once ChartHop is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect ChartHop once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my ChartHop data?

An agent can look up people, jobs, groups, orgs and job codes in ChartHop, create new ones, update existing ones, and add or remove people from groups. In practice that means asking who is in a group, opening a job with the right job code, or moving a person to a new team, all from a chat. Short, concrete asks such as "list open jobs in Engineering" work better than long paragraphs.

Does connecting ChartHop give the AI access to everyone's records?

No. Each person signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so an agent working in ChartHop only sees and changes what that person could already see and change. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions per role, and it never widens what ChartHop itself allows.

Can my team share one ChartHop connection?

Yes. One person connects ChartHop with the API key and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the person who created a job or moved a person, not the account that connected ChartHop.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in ChartHop?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading people and jobs in ChartHop while restricting deletes or updates. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot or any other client cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.

What happens to a ChartHop connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to ChartHop through every client at once. A shared ChartHop connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you ever want ChartHop gone entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot and every other client together.

Does the ChartHop MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. ChartHop is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for ChartHop?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use ChartHop. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every ChartHop call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for ChartHop?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to ChartHop: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.

Put ChartHop in front of your team

14 days of Black, no credit card. Connect it once and pick what each team can call.

When the trial ends, nothing is deleted. You move to the free Personal plan, and connections, roles and the audit log stay where they are.
